Minority-owned businesses survey under way

The Tampa Bay Business Journal is currently surveying for its annual list of the top 25 Minority-owned businesses in the Tampa Bay area.

In order to qualify, a company must be at least 51 percent owned by a minority and based in one of the following counties: Hernando, Hillsborough, Manatee, Pasco, Pinellas, Polk, Sarasota. Please note – this list does not include women-owned businesses unless the company is also minority-owned. The Women-owned businesses list will be surveyed separately later in the year.

Survey invitations were sent out via email on Monday.

Anyone who did not receive an email but is interested in participating can contact me at cerickson@bizjournals.com and I will be happy to send one over.
